You may be thinking of a puppy or dog as a new addition to your family; but dont know where to start? Or perhaps you already have a dog within your family dynamics; but want to ensure you are all living as harmoniously as possible. My chat today with Katie Saran sheds some light on considerations when it comes to choosing a dog suited to your family, as well as the common behaviours that she works to improve, to ensure positive pet relationships. Of course there is also mention of the growing number of benefits for children and dogs at various levels, as therapy dogs, or assistance dogs. Enjoy the chat with Katie, whose level of expertise allows her to work so holistically, and successfully with so many families who have dogs as a valued family member.
